The period of Bronze Age, Iron Age, Celtic, and Roman history covered by this book (2000 BC - AD 500) is vividly brought to life in the over 450 colour photographs contained within its pages. These cover a wide spectrum of everyday objects, including: buckles, brooches, rings, knives, weights, figurines, mounts, votive items, spoons, cosmetic implements, gaming dice, pottery, pins and weapons, together with more unusual items such as enamelled terret rings and mounts from chariots.
Each item is described and illustrated in chronological sequence, making the book an excellent reference work for collectors, dealers, museums and archaeologists.
